Healthy Moms Market sells natural baby products, artistic wooden toys, plastic-free school lunch containers, nutritional supplements for the entire family, natural products such as skincare for mothers in addition to a baby gift registry (https://shorturl.at/zhWkW).
Just because the owner of this interesting and much needed business on Dundas Street (Toronto, Canada) happens to be Jewish, she was targeted with vandalism twice, not just once.
Why should Ms. Aviva Allen be made responsible for what is happening, miles away, in the doomed Middle East? Why should she be intimidated with anti-Israel stickers (https://shorturl.at/FcVm1)?
Of note, vandalism is included in provisions covering mischief in Section 430(1) of the Canadian Criminal Code (https://shorturl.at/54ymM). Practically, the act of vandalism is often considered as a minor crime (e.g., spray painting graffiti or breaking a window). Nevertheless, deliberately OR recklessly damaging someone’s property/business could result in a prison sentence for up to 10 years, depending on the severity of the damage (https://shorturl.at/jkEYI).
Criminal or not, pending the outcome of the Toronto Police Services (TPS) Hate Crimes Unit investigation, vandalism is socially, morally, and behaviourally unacceptable.
Ms. Allen stated the following to the Canadian Jewish News: “I haven’t posted anything about Israel since right after Oct. 7, with the exception of a few videos or ‘stories’ [brief posts or shares] about antisemitism… [and] something about the Bibas babies (https://shorturl.at/FcVm1). Same like Bambi who also paid tribute to the Bibas family members, as shown further below. May their memory be eternal.
Even if Ms. Allen had expressed a support to Israel, as a state, to its hostages in particular, or population in general, no one has the right to intimidate her and install fear in her staff and clientele. Enough of intolerance and of importation of the world’s ugliest problems to our beautiful Canada.
